Stanley Tucci showed off his presenting skills on Tuesday night by hosting a star-studded gala in aid of a New York food bank.

The Devil Wears Prada star presided over the Can-Do Awards event, which was staged to benefit the Food Bank For New York City.

Hollywood couple Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick, who have previously volunteered for the hunger-relief organisation, were among the stars in attendance, while Gavin Rossdale's band Bush performed for guests.

In a post on her Twitter.com page, Sedgwick writes, "At the can do dinner for foodbank4nyc. Do what you can to help!!"
